He quickly said, "I understand now, Lixue. I shouldn't have kept quiet. I am sorry."
"Hmph!" She harrumphed and looked away.
Wei held her hand and kissed it. "Please? I am really sorry. I understand my mistake. Please don't be mad at me."
His pitiful expression made her heart melt like butter. He looked at her so innocently and guiltily that she couldn't stay mad at him. His Godly handsome face was too lethal for her especially when he looked apologetic.
"Alrightโฆ" she mumbled. "I cannot believe the Old Madam would go this far. What reputation? Is it more important than your daughter's dignity and respect?"
Wei turned somber and shook his head. "I don't care about reputation."
"Correct!"
She touched her chin. "What does Jiang Fai think about it?"
Wei looked at her guiltily. "...I don't know."
"..."
"The Old Madam always taught me not to waste my time on familial matters. I am only supposed to handle the Underworld and business."
